Take care, it's a long long ride
Take care on the other side
Take care, man, it's cold out there
And when you arrive
I will not be with you
Understand it ain't up to you
Just doing what I gotta do
I don't want you to dwell on this
Ignorance is bliss
So I beg you
Don't you lose your grace or your dignity
Don't you lose one minute of sleep over me
No one ever learns from a broken heart
So may you only remember the good parts
Take care and the tears will dry
Never settle, never sacrifice
Take care knowing I'm aware
Nothing can compare
To the pain you've been through
Understand that you will pull through
Just do what you gotta do
Yeah it sucks, but I must insist
No more good-bye kisses
I beg you
Don't you lose your grace or your dignity
Don't you lose one minute of sleep over me
No one ever learns from a broken heart
So may you only remember the good parts
Remember how it feels to hold somebody
Remember how it feels to touch somebody
Remember how it feels to walk hand in hand
Remember how it feels to hug somebody
Remember how it feels to kiss somebody
Remember how it feels to dance in the sand
Remember how it feels to love somebody
Remember how it feels to know somebody
Remember how it feels to find someone
Believe that you can do it again
Take care, it's a long long ride
Take care on the other side
Take care, man, it's cold out there
And when you arrive
I will not be with you
Understand it ain't up to you
Just doing what I gotta do
I don't want you to dwell on this
Ignorance is bliss
So I beg you
Don't you lose your grace or your dignity
Don't you lose one minute of sleep over me
No one ever learns from a broken heart
So may you only remember the good parts
